The federal government found $1.45 billion for a plan to acquire more than 2,200 unsold condos in British Columbia.At the same time, Canada's Veteran Homelessness Program is operating with $72.9 million through 2028, while approximately 1,800 veterans remain without stable housing.In this episode, Kelsi Sheren looks at the numbers side by side and asks a simple question: what does government spending tell us about its priorities?We break down the B.C. condo acquisition plan, the questions surrounding how it will work, veteran homelessness in Canada, and why the speed and scale of Ottawa's response looks very different depending on who is waiting for help.This isn't an argument against housing Canadians. It's an examination of urgency, spending, and the choices governments make when deciding where billions of dollars move quickly and where progress remains painfully slow.Read the sources, look at the numbers, and draw your own conclusions.SOURCES & FURTHER READING:Canada–British Columbia housing partnership — Government of Canadahttps://www.pm.gc.ca/en/news/news-releases/2026/06/18/canada-and-british-columbia-forge-new-partnership-accelerateVeteran Homelessness Program — Government of Canadahttps://housing-infrastructure.canada.ca/homelessness-sans-abri/veterans-anciens-combattants-eng.htmlSpring 2026 Housing Supply Report — CMHChttps://www.cmhc-schl.gc.ca/professionals/housing-markets-data-and-research/market-reports/housing-market/housing-supply-reportCondominium apartment market risks in Toronto and Vancouver — CMHChttps://www.cmhc-schl.gc.ca/observer/2025/condominium-apartment-market-risks-toronto-vancouverPoilievre asks ethics committee to probe plan to buy unsold B.C. condos — Global Newshttps://globalnews.ca/news/11942050/poilievre-bc-condo-plan-ethics-committee-probe-request/Subscribe for independent commentary and investigations into Canadian politics, veterans, government policy, and the stories that deserve a closer look.Buy me a coffee! - https://buymeacoffee.com/kelsisherenLet's connect!Substack: https://substack.com/@kelsisherenRumble - https://rumble.com/user/TheKelsiSherenPerspectiveInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/thekelsisherenperspective?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw%3D%3DX: https://x.com/KelsisherenSUPPORT OUR PEOPLE - - - - - - - - - - - -Ketone IQ- 30% off with code KELSI - https://ketone.com/KELSIGood Livin - 20% off with code KELSI - https://www.itsgoodlivin.com/?ref=KELSIBrass & Unity - 20% off with code UNITY - http://www.brassandunity.com
